>Well, it's an argument for racial profiling if certain races actually are more dangerous.

When you say "more dangerous" do you mean "inherently more dangerous" or "more likely to commit crimes per capita"? Because if it's the latter, then depending on how you define "race" some of these statistics are already known.

The latter is the only one that's of practical interest.

"Known"is a bit strong, since the source for the statistics can be debated.
